8.56 Twelve More Days

Alayna spent half the day preparing for the birthday party. Shortly after the girls arrived home from school, it was party time.

Sasha Pruett was the first to arrive and congratulate the birthday girls.

“Happy birthday, cuzzos!”

Anthony came downstairs to make sure they weren’t getting into trouble. His birthday was the previous day. He gained the geek trait and is now trying to figure out what to do with his life.

“What are you little ladies doing down here by yourselves?”

Casey Clemons made a special guest appearance. Of course, Sydney had never met her before, so she thought it was cool that this old lady knew everything about her family.

Wow! She’s really really old!

Viviana was glamorous as always.

Too bad Brady couldn’t make it. He would enjoy seeing everyone in the same room.

The Boss was off duty this night and came just as Callie Pruett.

I will not clean up anyone’s mess…I will not clean up anyone’s mess…I will not clean up anyone’s mess…

Marcus Sheffield, the last of his brood, was also in attendance.

“Ugh! I wish these email marketers would stop sending me urn catalogues!”

Julian was upstairs lamenting over the fact that his mom wouldn’t let him drink juice.

“…no, not even a sip. You’re not getting ME in trouble!”

Ryan Pruett was in the house as well, although he felt guilty about leaving his wife and newborn behind.

I wonder if everyone knows yet…

It looked like Owen was still trying to come to terms with having aliens in the family.

I have an alien for a granddaughter!

Roland was supposedly working in his office during the party, but it looked more like hiding to me.

“I’ll be out in a minute! Just…finishing up…”

Kiara was present and just as happy as she could be as always.

“Ahhhhh, family life!”

The party seemed to shift down into the basement, so Alayna went down to cut a rug too.

“…no no no, you’re doing it all wrong, Aunt Alayna! Let me teach you how to dougie.”

But, before it was time to blow out the candles, she wanted to make a toast with Roland. We will neither confirm nor deny if she was juicy in this moment.

“Here’s to 12 more days of servitude, attitudes, and any other ‘tudes!

“…and disquietude, incertitude, …”

“If these next twelve days are hell, it’s all your fault. If they’re wonderful, I’ll take the credit.”

“My wife can be really dramatic sometimes,” Roland said to Marcus.

“…oh! And ingratitude, …”

“How about 12 more days of molding young minds and preparing the way for the next leaders in society,” Roland asked.

“…because, I believe the children are the future…”

“I can’t stand you sometimes,” Alayna said.

It was a Thursday night, and it was getting late, so Alayna gathered the girls to culminate the event. Ci Ci waited until she got an audience before she blew out the candles.

Don’t believe it? Just watch!

“Awwwwwww! She’s like a little skinny mini me!”

She got her mother’s romantic trait. Sydney was prompt and ready to blow out her candles.

I KNOW she’s not wearing the same shoes as me!

Oh…no. False alarm!

Sydney got the loner trait just like her brother, Anthony. Both girls were very happy about their futures.

Oh yeah…we are CUTE!

Alayna, however, was concerned about one of theirs…

Hmph! Romantic, huh? I’ll be keeping my eye on this one…
